Well the question has always been how much markup is intel making on that CPU? If AMD can bring a CPU that can compete with the 6900k in virtually all scenarios for less than half the price, either intel's R&D team is inefficient as fuck or intel has been making quite a huge mark up on their CPUs. One way or the other, intel will have to bring their prices down, whether it be the 6900k or it's successor cause they can't sell a CPU for twice the price if its competitor offers very similar performace for half the price.

I belive they have been charging so much cuz they had no competition. I think they all of a suden will anounce a succesor with the same perfoormance as kabylake but "found new tech and/or procces" to lower the price. we will know its bullshit, but they need to save face. Its not like we will ever find out the profit on each cpu they make.

Yeaa. Hopefully Ryzen turns out to be legit cause boy, do we need it to be
